QNAP TS-409 Pro Turbo NAS Honored Golden Bear Award from Bjorn3d & Editor’s Choice from TechPowerUp

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) August 19, 2008 -- The leading storage solution provider QNAP Systems, Inc. today announced its All-in-One TS-409 Pro Turbo NAS has been honored the “Golden Bear Award” from Bjorn3d.com and “Editor’s Choice” from techPowerUp.com for its complete functions, good performance, ease of use, and outstanding RAID features for data protection.

The 4-bay, hot-swappable TS-409 Pro Turbo NAS is designed for business users who require high performance, mass storage, and useful server features. Powered by 500 MHz CPU and 256MB DRII memory, the NAS supports a wide range of enterprise-grade server features, e.g. RAID 0/ 1/ 5/ 6/ 5+spare disk redundancy, Online RAID Capacity Expansion, Online RAID Level Migration, HDD S.M.A.R.T. and complete log system. According to Bjorn3d, “After more than a month of use extensively testing the TS-409 we were left very favorably impressed, especially with the seemingly endless array of features and available configurations…(The TS-409 Pro) offered good performance, data protection, and differentiated themselves from their competition.”

The TS-409 Pro offers advanced RAID protection features which are rarely seen in other NASes of the same level. The unique Online RAID Capacity Expansion and the Online RAID Level Migration are valuable features for users. As techPowerUp commented, “The added value comes from the extra disks and RAID levels supported. And when I say RAID I'm not talking about a simple onboard controller, the QNAP TS-409 Pro surprised me with RAID 6 (although slightly pointless with only 4 disks) and features like online expansion and migration. Such functionality is usually only found on advanced controllers you'd find in high end servers.”
